Hot Air Balloon

PRIVATE RIDE

This Private/VIP Balloon ride will allow you to enjoy the hot air balloon flight with more intimacy. You can have the balloon for yourselves, especially with a partner or with friends. Being the only passengers riding in the basket, you will have the opportunity to learn the basics of how to pilot a hot air balloon from the pilot himself. If you’re lucky enough, you will also get the chance to pilot the balloon yourself in a short span of time. In case of that, you’ll have the chance to fly in a small-sized balloon, the one used in competitions because it is more agile and dynamic than a normal hot air balloon. 

INCLUSIONS:

  • Flight organization, the ballooning team (pilot and crew member).

  • Third party insurance according to European law Nº785/2004

  • Briefing, preparation, and inflation of the balloon.

  • Hot air balloon flight of approximate duration of 1 hour.

  • Landing, balloon and passengers recovery by the chase crew.

  • Transfer back to the launch field in 4x4.

  • Cava toast, soft drinks and a surprising meal at the landing spot.

  • Delivery of first flight certificates signed by the pilot.

The Flight Program

ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION

The start would be at dawn with all of the members of the group in the meeting place so that all of you can experience how to set up the balloon and can finish them early. After that, we will take off for about an hour with the wind carrying us around the Catalonian landscape. After the ride, the “chase crew” will recover the balloon and the group back to the launch field to celebrate the experience with a Cava toast. Then for the finale, this is the part where all of the passengers get a certificate signed by the pilot.

FLYING HOURS, DURATION & DAYS OF ACTIVITY

This balloon ride starts early in the morning and ends around noon time. Specific time is scheduled according to the flying season. This one-hour balloon flight including all of the other activities lasts for half a day. We at BCN Montjuic Tourist Point and all our partner companies for this activity operate all year long.

LOCATION OF THE ACTIVITY

Experience this exciting adventure in the Vallés Oriental, just half an hour away from Barcelona.

If it happens to be a clear sky, you’ll have the chance to admire Montserrat picks, the Mediterranean sea, and Barcelona itself. 

USEFUL INFORMATION

  • It is possible to fly all year long in Catalonia. It is in fact more interesting to fly during the winter season because it offers more advantages to passengers; the weather is more stable during this season that makes the flights longer and you can also get up later as dawn takes place in the early morning.

  • Hot air balloon activities are dependent on fair weather conditions.

  • Take-off must be during favorable conditions with calm winds of less than 20 km per hour and with no rain. Flights would be postponed on another day if ever the schedule of your flight has unsuitable conditions.
